Defining Foreign Key in mysqlcc

I am building a DB using mysqlcc and need to define a FK in a table, but can not find information on how to do this.
Obviously this should be simple, but I could use some help...

Thanks in advance

I don't know how to do it in mysqlcc's interface, but if you can feed it a straight query, you can use this:

Code:

 ALTER TABLE
   child_table
 ADD FOREIGN KEY (child_field) REFERENCES parent_table(parent_field)
  ON DELETE etc.

Check the manual for adding ON DELETE and ON UPDATE conditions
